A clear and proven framework to help adults with ADHD manage and regulate their emotions

Emotional dysregulation shows up in multiple ways-like the paralyzing anxiety that comes when a big decision needs to be made, or the inability to let go of a stressful conversation at work, or even the frustration that bubbles into an angry outburst when our kids misbehave. The result is that adults with ADHD rarely get a break from the severity of their emotions.

UNSTUCK explains the science behind the ADHD brain's regulatory system and provides evidence-based strategies for rewiring the brain's ability to handle challenging emotions. Chapters are purposefully tailored to the ADHD brain, with short sections, exercises and colorful metaphors. Through Marcy's proprietary tool-the Emotion Meter-she demonstrates that the key is recognizing the intensity of your emotions so you can de-escalate, going from a raging Red to a flooded Orange, down to a stabilizing Yellow and finally entering a calm Green.
